The only area of my city that has cicling lanes is also the only place in probably the whole country that has a rainbow lgbt flag painted on the street, right on the cicling lane too,

I was made aware of this effeminate fellow a few weeks ago when the new goyslop movie was released.
Meet Alex Arnold an Indiana Jones 'influencer'. He is a male nurse located in Florida

He has already seen this horseshit film 9 times.

theres something inherently creepy about the way they put these flags everyone
especially since its not even in relation to any kinda movement, statement or publicity stunt, its entirely out of context and unfitting to its location, theres no reason to do it, just the completely random and unprompted desire to
its almost like some kinda memetic brain parasite that pushes you to do it

I've always found it particularly fascinating that they think putting it on pavement is a good idea. Cars, motorcycles, bicycles and pedestrians all driving on/rolling over/stepping on a flag has always been viewed as incredibly disrespectful in many cultures. Even in the United States where it's legal to burn the US flag, people still generally think you're a cunt worthy of a beatdown for actually doing it.
Yet this movement seems quite comfortable having its beloved symbol trampled? I guess that humiliation fetish is more common among that crowd of defectives.

The consoomerism aside, how brain drained do you have to be to watch the same movie over and over and over again? I’ve got favourite movies I’ve seen a maximum of 2 times maybe. These are complex films but you kinda get the point on the second watch and by that stage there’s nothing new to learn or entertain yourself with. This guy reminds me of putting a toddler in front of The Wiggles on Netflix and they just dance and clap along with their diminished capacity.

I'm convinced they just buy the tickets and pretend like they went to the movie after the second time.
Back when Pacific Rim came out, I wanted it to do well so I went to see it a second time in the moving-seat d-box gimmick. I had no interest in going back a third time.

He's a wannabe eceleb, he's doing it for attention. Some years back there were news articles written about some guy who'd keep going to the theater to watch the same Marvel capeshit film over and over again. He was obviously fishing for a Guinness world record or general publicity.

It's fine to put it on the ground and have everyone trample it, but don't you dare do a burnout on the fag colored stretch of pavement that everyone else has already left tire marks on. That's a hate crime.

when your whole movement is built on oppression, yet youre no longer oppressed, you can either give up on the movement and say "well i guess thats it, weve achieved our goal. uhh... close up shop and enjoy our equality, i guess?"
or you can keep the fuck on going....
and we all know which path the average Victim-American chooses
this is actually very apt for the consumerism thread
the demand for oppression outweighs the supply, so you gotta start artificially manufacturing it

Apparently that was common for bored kids back in the day like 45 years ago, at least according to my mother and uncle who said they'd hang out in the theater all day and watch Jaws, ET, or the original Star Wars over and over for the price of a single ticket.

Movie tickets were relatively cheap back then and home video hadn't taken off yet. If you didn't see a movie when it came out, you had to hope it goes re-released or showed on on tv in edited form in a few years. It's why I saw E.T. in the theater five times.

Indian Jones turned into a corporate shell of itself after it turned the hero into an old, decrepit shell of himself. This one is not shocking since the consumerism surrounding the latest movie is trying to tell us that the new one is special, yet a movie about stopping child sex trafficking will turn you into a QAnon worshipper that thinks Hollywood grooms children into sex slaves.
To put it short, there is nothing worth consooming about Indy. Disney is still losing money and laying off people while trying to revive dead franchises that no one wants.

In theory, they can eat some loss at the box office by offsetting it with theme park revenue. The movies hype up the attractions, which is where they make the real money. In-person events were always the backbone of their business. However, given the sheer scale and consistency of the losses they're incurring and the dwindling numbers at their parks(poorly attended movies don't motivate as many people to put up with overpriced tickets, lodging and food in the midst of a bad economy just attend their corresponding theme park attractions. who would have guessed) even that business model is probably being pushed to the breaking point.
It seemed like they benefitted from a bit of a pull-forward effect as the return of in person events post-lockdowns gave them a bit of renewed interest 2021-2022 and got a bit cocky from it, but now that novelty has mostly worn off just in time for a string of high-profile failures on the silver screen. It really is the perfect storm they've found themselves in, one almost entirely of their own making.

What's really pulling things nice & taut for Disney is that their "bread and butter" -- the theme park experience -- is turning to dog shit. The Star Wars stuff Disney has done in-park has been fucking god-awful by all accounts. And it's not just a matter of "oh they're phoning it in because they know people will swallow it anyway" ... it seems like they're actively trying to sabotage it somehow. "How do we burn this to the ground for good?" seems to be the prevalent question on their minds.
It's the same for the rest of their IP's too. The themed stuff just isn't any good. Add to that skyrocketing prices, significant cuts in staffing, a sharp decline in the quality of the food & beverages they serve up in all the restaurants (cheap or fancy, doesn't matter; it's apparently all gone south in a big way in recent years), and as much as Disney fans love to pretend the company's beefs with Florida aren't impacting things, they absolutely are.
Plenty of Floridians are pissed at Disney over all that shit (and their entitled whining ever since), so locals aren't going as much, and it wouldn't surprise me if even some truly die-hard Disney lovers around the world are getting weary of visiting right now because of it. Coming out against "hey don't fuck our kids, m'kay?" legislation has been a terrible publicity fuckup for Hollywood in general, but especially for Disney. They're the world's biggest child-focused entertainment company and they're pissed about being other people being told not to fuck kids? No parent is blind to that.

Nintendo has been really drinking Disney's milkshake for a while and now they are doing theme parks and movies too with a lot of success while Disney crumbles at it.

Seems to me they thought they could keep on making things worse and worse with no backlash. Given that nationwide reopening doubtless brought a massive influx of traffic from people who had been avoiding gatherings for the better part of a year, they probably thought things would just keep going up. They probably assumed the social media hyperconsoomers who happily trekked around their park buying all their overpriced food and drinks so they could consume it on livestream for clicks were generating positive press for them as well. Given the viewcounts, I'm not surprised they thought this would translate into increased sales. A quick search on youtube for "disney influencers" gets you an endless list of videos just like these, some with disturbingly high viewcounts.
Being a brand loyalist online can be highly profitable.

Unfortunately for Disney, Youtube views don't translate into ticket sales (for theaters or parks).
